Thanks, I got a whole bunch of feedback, much of the same as you alluded to actually and a lot of amends to make!

I think I get what you mean, someone else pointed to a simpler design and smaller logo as well, thanks!

Thanks for the feedback, if no one likes them its back to the drawing board (literally!). Thankfully I have two more days of design amends to be made so taking on everyones advice is crucial.

Just wondering (*hoping) the UK is in that small list of countries too?

Such a great product, this solves a massive problem I have when away and using Airbnb for my flat and having to get my poor mum to have to come round to let them in each time so will definitely be ordering one. p.s as its often difficult to

Great idea, this would definitely work in the UK

Definitely true, the last three projects I've ran have utilised your products (Confluence & Jira specifically) and its through word of mouth only.

This subject keeps coming up and just won't go away, the problem is that most of the points raised essentially come down to funding, if we really wanted to go there (or the moon) and setup a base, then we would have by now. Other than Space

Thankfully I have managed to reject the requests from upper management to set me up with a Blackberry at various positions. It pains me to see friends receiving emails on their BB whilst at the pub after work and fretting over the email the

I went to Tel Aviv back in 99' and absolutely loved the place, it had such a good vibe, but as I've read recently its becoming a hotbed for startups so I'm sure they will have a great time there! I would also recommend checking out Netanya

I can't agree more about the standard of developers, a host of roles I've interviewed candidates for in my past 2 positions just don't get the same calibre of applicant for a permanent role vs contract.

Sorry, your assumptions are way off. Indoor mapping and specifically location aware indoor mapping is huge. We're trying to solve exactly this problem in London, why you may ask? When you have millions of commuters using your network each d

Slightly confusing to be to be honest, Lean.com as the domain (which most likely cost a small fortune) but all the branding is LeanMarket. I'm sure they have plans for more combined branding, but its a bit amiss for me.

I commute on SWT daily from Bournemouth so I understand your frustration, I'm yet to have a week that has run every service on time. The low point was a bike falling on the track and the train having to stop for an hour and a half for the d

Andrew, some good and bad news... Good news - The team loved the implementation, especially the way it rendered on mobile for the smaller stations. They also raised some opportunities for development, such as hints of which carriage to use

Haha, I'm only a few weeks in so please do! Though I am working closely with the team that open up the data and look after the mapping options so feel free to ask a question or two.

I've just started out at TFL and the goal for open data is far from being cracked down upon, in fact it seems they are trying to make more available, give me a shout if there are any particular problems you've experienced and I'm sure I can

This is great, Victoria would be an interesting one to try!. I'll pass this on to my colleague who looks over all our mapping, he'll really like this! (Note : I work for TFL Online).

Winamp was great back in the day, suffered with iTunes for a while and now have deleted all my mp3s and living solely with a Spotify premium account. But I loved those skins on winamp!

Does anyone have any good reference links for H1B positions or a list of companies that are open to them. I'd quite happily pay the immigration fees myself to get into the states (currently in the UK also).

Your position is aggressive and invalid. I personally have never leaned towards having children, I have friends and family with young children and I see the benefit and joy they get, but for me its never been a personal goal or desire. May

I'm at stage 1 of your story at the moment, I'm part developing / outsourcing dev from my contracting earnings and hoping to launch in the next 3mths, I'm then heading off around Central & South America for the next 3 to try and push it

I own a car, I own a nice flat in a popular beach town and earn a very good wage. This may sound cliche, but I woke up a year and a half ago and realised I had so many things I wanted to do but just never did. So I wrote a bucket list of
